    Type 2500 Mounting Cageless Sensor CAUTION If a stillwell is used, install it plumb so that the displacer does not touch the wall of the stillwell. If the displacer touches the wall, the unit will transmit an erroneous output signal. Since the displacer hangs inside the vessel, provide a stillwell around the displacer if the fluid is in a state of continuous agitation to avoid excessive turbulence...
